DATEPART wont return day value as Sunday,Monday ... it just returns the number of date in the week like 1,2... also its result depends on what you set as first date of week using SET DATEFIRST statement.The default value for DATEFIRST is 7 which will take Sunday as first day of the week if its U.S. and you can use @@DATEFIRST to see the currently set value.To get day of week returned what you want isDATENAME(WEEKDAY,datefield) |
